I live in Wisconsin, land of cows, Green Bay Packers, and cheeseheads!
I am really excited about this site, thanks to all of your input and the extraordinary effort put forth by burgerman.
Just a little background on my situation...
My disability is "arachnoiditis". I am not paralyzed. However, I use an electric chair to help me be mobile. Without it, I wouldn't be able to go anywhere, or do much at all. The arach. causes my nerves in my lower back to basically short circuit, sending constant, or near constant pain signals to the brain. Walking, or even standing for more than about 3-5 minutes is difficult at best. Anything beyond that has not been possible for me in 7 years. I have had PT, pain management, the gamut of pain meds, an internal stimulator (L5-L6) meant to disrupt pain signals going to the brain.
I look forward to learning and sharing as much as possible about modding the chairs, and upgrading batteries, etc.
I just received my Hyperion EOS 1420i the other day. I also just received the Anderson Power Pole SB50's and 10 awg wire for making connections, adapters, etc.
I dabbled in electric helis as well. Align makes some great helis, that's for sure. I just had a 450 T-Rex, but I loved her. That was about 5 yrs ago already. I used Anderson PP's back then as well.
Best Regards,
Matt
